Plus, with Tibbe I worry about the toxicity and long-term effects of the things in the liquid plaque removers. After learning of the horrors of Xylitol and things like that, I worry what else lurks in these things that are so strong they kill plaque formation or somehow ?prevent? it? How? How are they so powerful they keep bacteria from forming that gooey film and then hardening, pushing the gums back, etc., without being toxic over time? They don't speak to that on their labels and they seem to have no long-term studies that addresses toxicity or other adverse effects. I just wonder if there are there any long-term studies on their liver, kidney, etc., toxicity or any studies showing they really if and how they work to inhibit the formation of dental plaque when spritzed on several times a week.
